About the book

Understanding Animation offers a number of reasons why animation has been consigned to the margins of film history and criticism, and argues animation's case to be recognised as a significant art form.

First sentence: To animate, and the related words, animation, animated and animator all derive from the latin verb, animate, which means 'to give life to', and within the context of the animated film, this largely means the artificial creation of the illusion of movement in inanimate lines and forms.
